OK. You've heard that term too many times. But still doesn't know the meaning quite exact, right?

Now here it isXenophobia is an intense and/or irrational dislike and sometimes fear of people from other countries. It comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner," "stranger," and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear." The term is typically used to describe a fear or dislike of foreigners or of people significantly different from oneself.

About Me

When I was young, I decided what I wanted to be when I grow up - a polymath. That's what I still want to be.
For now, I am a doctor, a coder, a blogger, and a lifelong learner. I also think a lot. I think about everything. I often think meta.
I like people who believe that anything is possible.

Going Social
